Lots, of good ideas, but I hope you have gentle cattle. Cattle will easily destroy those cattle panels. Either replace with heavier panels as needed or more lumber. You’ll figure it out, I’ve worked them on the end of a rope and about anything beats that. I’m 74 years old, and it only takes a lifetime to get things the way you want them, and then there about due for replacement.
You better put some boards on the inside of your sweep cause those wire panels ain't gonna hold when you start crowding cows up in there! Especially being nailed on the other side of the post!
This is the most useful of videos... I can’t afford what some of these people do! I have 6 dexters/midsize jerseys...love this video, thanks for your thoroughness. I am new to cows but not to animals, these was great(-:
Thanks a bunch this was very helpful I been trying to find some info on making my own so started drawling it up off what I know ... Really like the work area and fold down sides
Very cool! I originally subscribed to this channel for the bee content. I really appreciate the extra info about farming too. I am digging the corral. Well thought out and very useful. :-)
The explanations for the ideas used to develop the design can help to show how other applications or modifications might benefit from a similar plan. Very well considered and presented. I was concerned the wire mesh could catch an animals leg and trip it among other cattle. Not sure if weather is a problem but a roof over the crush and work station could save mud and dust around the vet gear and make the area better for stock and workers. If future AI is a possibility the cleaner area would help. Fabricating a head movement limit/ restraint to prevent excessive upward thrusts might make the ear tagging and drenching etc. safer on larger animals.
Liked the effort and set up. Yes its an older video but for those of us who see this for the first time, we'll I realize you did not leave yourself escape route in the alley after you carabiner lock the gate behind you. Always have escape plan...if can go bad, it will and it will In blink of an eye
I worked in construction for many years and have designed projects for a lot of people, but when I design a project for myself, it seems to be much more complicated. Sounds like you are dealing with the same problem.
You need a longer alley ! Get steel pipe for your head gate . You will have a Major wreck with those wooden posts . Put up pipe panels in your crowding pin!👍
Simple easy lines for the cows to move through should work well. 98% of the time a head gate is all you really need. If you keep your eyes open a good used squeeze just might show up and if need be you could even mount your head gate on the squeeze body.
Looks good but in the future when you grow your herd i would get a priefert 90 degree sweep into a 24 foot alley or however far it is until your head gate
Be interesting to see this in action but didn't see any. Seems like he took Cattle Panels to heart but I wouldn't depend on it for year after year use. My cows can clear a 5 foot fence easily and will fight over a 6 foot fence if they really want to. They know when they are put in the corral, that something is gonna happen to them.
This is about as good as it gets. Its hard to control something this big and powerful. Restrain them too much and they could die. You are correct, but cutting bulls is much more dangerous than tagging.
Brown's Beef and Bees Thing to do is talk to folks where you got head gate.Tell them you would like to know about getting a bar that is used on front of head gate to keep cattle from slinging their head .It don’t hurt the cattle and makes it a lot safer.Would not be very expensive at all!
Use a cattle double lead rope halter sold by Sullivan’s supply or Weaver Leather livestock to hold up head and just tie it up to the outside of wood post to help with head from moving!

This is one of the better explanation of a cattle chute for loading and corralling cattle. Thank you!
Great job.. Well thought out.. Very functional without the need for a bank full of money.
You provided good and more helpful information than you think - thanks a bundle!
The sorting place is very good. Nice flow! Thanks!

a late post... but i was thinking same thing - the wire on the other side of post is likely to be trouble.
Very nice set up! I’m working on mine now and I got some great ideas from your video! Thanks!
Great work on this project. Seems like a very thorough design.
Nice job. Your description of how cows react is spot on. Corral looks very functional. Nice job.
If I could make a suggestion, mount a chain on one side so you can go over their nose and keep that head under control while tagging

Thanks for sharing man. Much appreciated! Nicely done

awesome video and nice work.
Nice work!
very thoughtful, I'm working on stuff for my horses pasture
U did a good job
Great job, about to start a Cattle Business myself , great info, new sub😎
Nice set up. That should work well.
looks like a good design, but i don't think those panels will hold up

900,000 pound cow? Ooh that's a big steak!
Gostei muito, simples e prático, parabéns
I would build a heavy swing gate instead of a vertical drop gate they are kinda a pain
Curious how this held up? You must have pretty tame cows. Mine would eat that for breakfast.
Nice design, good to see you back. Looking forward to some more bee videos as your time allows.
Good stuff, we are in the process of building a set on our channel.
A good design

That’s very light duty. Panels and gates will be destroyed quickly!
Simple easy lines for the cows to move through should work well. 98% of the time a head gate is all you really need. If you keep your eyes open a good used squeeze just might show up and if need be you could even mount your head gate on the squeeze body.
Awesome design. Have you had any troubles of cows getting through the series 3 headgate?
How many acres do you have?
Love the video
Would you share your updated plans
I like your corrals and the design. How much distance between posts? And how are those cattle panels holding-up to pressure. Thanks.
If you would narrow the alley way down where 3-4 cow's can be locked up and can't turn around or jump over. Nice setup.
That was my thought as well watching this, too wide an area leading to the head gate. Too much opportunity for turning around, etc…
Do you have a pdf print that is accessible? I'm getting ready to build one for myself & like the layout of this one. Thanks
Looks good but in the future when you grow your herd i would get a priefert 90 degree sweep into a 24 foot alley or however far it is until your head gate
Agree. This works for my small herd. I will need an upgrade in the future.
@@joebrown2487 i wouldnt say 30 is small at all but safety is key and sweeps achieve that goal pretty well, you can find some cheap ones to
Mr. can get a copy of your cattle handling pen.
How much did this all cost?
Be interesting to see this in action but didn't see any. Seems like he took Cattle Panels to heart but I wouldn't depend on it for year after year use. My cows can clear a 5 foot fence easily and will fight over a 6 foot fence if they really want to. They know when they are put in the corral, that something is gonna happen to them.
If mine start jumping a 5-6 foot fence, they are going to the sale barn.
Dang! 😂
Yeah... I don't think I could handle a 900,000 pound cow either. 😋
I thought I heard it wrong😂
Bro your chute is an arm breaker and leg breaker! I hope your cattle are gentle because your in trouble if thier wild!
did you put cement in every single post?
Yes. 1/2 of an 80 pound bag. All posts are at least 2 foot in the ground. Four foot spacing.
You need to check out some sort of head control for the head gate Very easy to get your face messed up with cows slinging heads the way they do!
This is about as good as it gets. Its hard to control something this big and powerful. Restrain them too much and they could die. You are correct, but cutting bulls is much more dangerous than tagging.

900,000 thousand pound cow ways more than my house
Haha, yea he said that & I was like Jesus this guy's probably from another world
He meant 900 lbs to 1,000 lbs
